Brief summary

The purpose of CLP-01 was to complete the safety endpoint of the closed trial and ensure that all safety data generated by IRR-CT-901-2013-01 was accounted for and accurately identified, verified, and independently adjudicated. CLP-01 does not include an evaluation of the efficacy or exploratory endpoints from IRR-CT-901-2013-01. CLP-01 did not enroll new subjects and relied solely on data collected in the subject source and medical records in IRR-CT-901-2013-01. CLP-01 was conducted between March 2020 and November 2021.

Detailed description

Between 2013 and 2016, Irrimax Corporation sponsored a prospective clinical study (IRR-CT-901-2013-01; NCT02255487) in the United States under IRB approval. IRR-CT-901-2013-01 defined primary and secondary efficacy, exploratory, and safety endpoints. The safety endpoint from IRR-CT-901-2013-01 was a clinical review and analysis of Adverse Events (AEs). However, IRR-CT-901-2013-01 was terminated early after the Interim Analysis primarily because of issues with the accuracy and completeness of the data collected for IRR-CT-901-2013-01, the lack of SoC standardization, and challenges assessing study endpoints arising out of the complexity of the trauma and co-morbidities of the subjects enrolled. The sole purpose of CLP-01 was to complete the safety endpoint for IRR-CT-901-2013-01. CLP-01 reviewed all AEs recorded in IRR-CT-901-2013-01 and identified additional AEs in the subject source and medical records. All AEs were assessed for severity and causality and were reviewed by the individual Principal Investigators (PIs) at each site and the CLP-01 Medical Monitor (MM).

Interventions

DEVICEIrrisept

Irrisept® is a manual, self-contained irrigation device designed for wound cleansing and irrigation. The solution is 0.05% Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG) in sterile water for irrigation, USP (99.95%). Irrisept contents include the solution, a 450 mL bottle, and the Irriprobe applicator. Irrisept is a manual, self-contained irrigation device that can produce 7-8 psi of pressure for effective wound cleansing and irrigation. The user squeezes the bottle to create streams of solution and directs the fluid from the applicator onto a wound. The mechanical action of the streams of fluid being applied over a wound removes particulates and debris. Subjects randomized to Irrisept on study protocol IRR-CT-901-2013-01 used the device, per the provided Instructions for Use. Those randomized to SoC received routine care, per the discretion of the investigator, and in accordance with the institution's guidelines.

DEVICEStandard of Care

Subjects randomized to SoC on study protocol IRR-CT-901-2013-01 used any SoC type, per the investigator's discretion. SoC types were not standardized. Sites recorded SoC information as free text. The following were recorded as SoC types: Saline (recorded as normal, warm and/or sterile saline or saline solution); Sodium Chloride (recorded as sodium chloride (NACL) or NACL 0.9%); SoC; Irrisept (recorded as normal saline & Irrisept and Irrisept); Chloraprep; Gentamicin & saline; unknown; and none.

Recruitment details

CLP-01, a retrospective review study conducted between 03/2020 & 11/2021, did not enroll new subjects, but relied solely on data collected for the trial IRR-CT-901-2013-01.CLP-01's purpose was to complete the safety endpoint of the closed trial & ensure that all safety data generated by IRR-CT-901-2013-01 was accounted for & accurately identified, verified, & independently adjudicated. CLP-01 did not include an evaluation of the efficacy or exploratory endpoints from IRR-CT-901-2013-01.

Pre-assignment details

CLP-01 included safety data only from trial IRR-CT-901-2013-01. There were 636 ITT subjects (i.e., those who consented into IRR-CT-901-2013-01). There were 592 mITT subjects (i.e., those who consented, randomized to Irrisept or SoC, had a procedure, used irrigation during that procedure & had verifiable safety data. Of the 592 mITT subjects, 294 subjects were given Irrisept & 298 subjects were given SOC. The remaining 44 subjects had non-evaluable data & were not included in the analysis.

Participants by arm

ArmCount
Irrisept
For subjects randomized to the investigational group, Irrisept was used during the surgical procedure, per the provided instructions for use. Baseline data for age, gender, race and region was not the purpose of CLP-01 and therefore was not collected for Irrisept subjects. The purpose of CLP-01 was to identify and assess adverse event causality and severity only.
0
Standard of Care (SoC)
For subjects randomized to the control group, any SoC irrigation solution, preferred by the investigator, was used during the surgical procedure. Baseline data for age, gender, race and region was not the purpose of CLP-01 and therefore was not collected for SoC subjects. The purpose of CLP-01 was to identify and assess adverse event causality and severity only.
